The Department of Public Works designs and builds many of the public buildings we use in San Francisco every day. Our diverse projects include cultural centers, museums, health centers, hospitals, libraries, neighborhood fire and police stations, and other iconic institutions.
Our goal is to create and maintain beautiful highly functional, and sustainable facilities that contribute to making San Francisco a livable, vibrant, and sustainable city. Major capital projects are typically funded through local, state or federal public financing programs or through general obligation bonds. DPW is building and modernizing our City. Our portfolio speaks volumes about our engineering, design, project and construction management services. Just take a look.
These services are provided by DPW's Bureau of Project Management, Bureau of Engineering, Bureau of Architecture, and theBureau of Construction Management. These bureaus work together, with other city agencies, and with our community to deliver state of art facilities for everyone to enjoy.
San Francisco plans and prioritizes short and long-term capital improvement projects and needs through the Ten-year Capital Plan. For more information, visit the Capital Planning Program web site.
